This is cool. Ive been wanting to laminate scrap book paper and see how it turned out on coasters. Thanks! Just some advice, you might want to sounds more excited when you talk. Its very mono toned...maybe add some music in the background.

[@godiscoveramerica]

Great information. You just need to talk more so we know what you are doing,

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! I will definitely do that in the next videos 💕

[@babybrother7586]

Your video was perfect, don't change a thing. In other videos the people talk too much and much of it isnt useful information. Your video provided great, detailed instructions that even a 5 year old could understand. Your voice was kind and your energy was genuine/pleasant You give off good vibes. Don't change a thing and don't listen to the internet couch potato critics who will always find something to complain about, and who probably aren't bold or courageous enough to make and post their own video. Anyway, great job, keep up the great work.

Yes talk up just a little bit can hardly hear you

[@libertygeneralstore8298]

If you turn the knob on the top of your heat press it adjust your height. Then your heat press will close.

[@creativeways1153]

I was wondering what it was for but didn't want to break anything 🤣 thank you!

[@normazaharioudakis115]

Your colors are so vibrant is it your printer? I have a 2803 Epson love your work

[@normazaharioudakis115]

Hello love your coasters I have a lot of coasters from Michaels but they’re black are they the same as the white? Thank you

[@armouda1]

So are the images simply printed from an ink jet printer?

[@aprilstarr7219]

Do you use a special ink for the printer?

[@tangerinemoondesigns2579]

Nice job! Did you coat the tiles with anything prior to sublimating them?

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! No, I did not coat the tiles. Just used laminated thermal sheet.

[@florindaspaulding5016]

can you use these for coaster? use to but hot cup of coffee

[@marir1005]

These are beautiful. How long did you leave the tile with the laminate and the heat press for before putting the image?

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! I put the laminate on and then popped the bubbles, if any. I then press the image. There is no need to let the tile cool down before placing the image. :)

[@karenpaul4594]

Nice where did you get your glue back cork from? Your tiles are Beautiful.

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! I got them from amazon

[@suescholz4645]

Will that come off the tile or is it permanent?

[@t.viktor9734]

Hi, how durable is it? Maybe it can be installed later on the bathroom or kitchen wall?

[@LinnieRingl]

Nice work, but could you add a supply list? Thank you.

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! I've updated the description with the items I used. If you need links to anything else please let me know 💖

[@aw4218]

Love these. I can't seem to get my laminating sheets to stick to my tiles, they have lots of bubbles and then just peel off - yours look so perfect! Any tips?

[@creativeways1153]

Hi! Did you make sure the shiny part of the thermal laminate sheet is facing up and the rough side facing down before applying heat? Also, for my bubbles I did poke little holes with my X-acto knife and you can use a card to smooth it out.

[@aw4218]

@@creativeways1153 thanks so much for replying, I did make sure the shiny part was facing up, my bubbles are all over :( I'm wondering if it's my tiles so I'm going to try with some different ones, and see how I get on.

[@RainorShine1]

​@@aw4218you can use clear or white vinyl to do the same thing ans cone out good

[@ARXER-hi1zs]

@@creativeways1153 I never used sheets, I just sprayed tile with polymer spray from Home Depot, 2 or coats, bake in oven @ 400 for ten min than sublimate on them, they come out just as good. You can make 30 plus blanks at one time in the oven.

[@sharlenemiles4751]

I set my press at 400 but when I did the step of attaching the laminate to the tile I did it for 30 seconds and the laminate didn’t attach to the tile very good. You were able to easily peel it off of the tile? Any idea?

[@creativeways1153]

Hi! Did you make sure the shiny part of the thermal laminate sheet is facing up and the rough side facing down before applying heat? Also, once heated it is very hard to feel off from tile.

[@maryjanegarza8869]

What type of paper do you use in the printer

[@swingingstars11]

Did you coat them with anything after sublimation to protect them image?

[@creativeways1153]

No I did not

[@charlenepatton9758]

Love your video How much are each tile or the name and style

[@creativeways1153]

Thank you! I just added the link into the description. The tiles from homedepot are the 4x4 for only 16 cents each. 💕

[@RainorShine1]

Does the lamaite lift when u set a hot or cold drink on it?

[@creativeways1153]

No it does not lift at all. I still use the same ones now 💕

[@latenightseamstress6032]

Question. Are you using the laminate because the tile is not glazed already?

[@creativeways1153]

Sorry for the late response, but I am using laminatr because the sublimation ink sticks to it 💕

[@vikki92411]

Great video. How are you doing it for 60 seconds and it work? All other videos says 5-7 minutes. 60 sec sound so much better. Maybe I’ll try it. Thanks

[@creativeways1153]

5-7 minutes? I think it would burn lol Yes, try 400 for 60 seconds and let me know how it works for you 💕

[@vikki92411]

Thank you, I will. I have done them at 350 for 10 mins and they don’t burn, but if I can do it for less time, I’ll have an opportunity to make more each day. May not seem like a big difference but I’m super impatient these days… 😊 thank you

Where did you purchase air freshener blanks

[@creativeways1153]

I added the link into the description. I got them from Amazon 💖

[@rozroz7527]

Nice video. Can you please advise as to what causes air bubbles? I keep messing up tiles no matter how many secs I press :( And they don’t come out even when varnishing

[@creativeways1153]

Hi, thank you for watching! Are you taping the edges down? When I get air bubbles I poke them and use a card to go over while it is still hot.

Hi. New sub. These are awesome. I have the same printer and I use the same ink as you. But my red comes out orange. I've done multiple head cleanings. 🙃 Any suggestions?

[@creativeways1153]

If you message me on Instagram or Facebook I can send you the screenshot I have for the settings I use.

[@jenifercrandell4618]

have the same printer and had the same issues until I started printing my files through photoshop and used the photoshop color profiles

[@gazthemodelman]

Go into your printer settings, go to colour management, click custom, then click no colour management. I did this and the colours come out exactly the same as you see them on the screen. 🤗

[@alynor151]

Which ink cartridges do you use?

[@creativeways1153]

I use hippo sublimation ink

[@TheDwilliams1000]

I can't get the laminate to stay on the tile. It just comes right off when I'm cutting it

[@creativeways1153]

Is it the thermal laminated sheet? If so, did you apply the rough side facing down onto the tile and the shiny part should be facing upward?

[@vohbetty]

Are they waterproof?

[@TheDwilliams1000]

How do you make the photo that size?

[@creativeways1153]

The photo is 4x4 you can make it 4x5 if the image will cover the whole tile and you won't see white around the corners. Hope that makes sense
